The method, explained
Split on the exact case-sensitive search text and join the pieces with the replacement. Matches are non-overlapping.
Replacing blue with clear in “blue sky, blue sea” gives “clear sky, clear sea” and reports 2 replacements.
What to keep in mind
Search is case-sensitive and literal, not a regular expression. An empty search is rejected; an empty replacement removes matches. Output size is bounded.
Common questions
Are dollar signs special in replacement text?
No. The replacement is inserted literally, including dollar signs and backslashes.
Can I remove a word?
Yes. Leave the replacement empty, but review surrounding spaces and punctuation afterward.
